Lange's Dual Core technology utilizes a new power injection process allowing two high-grade plastics (PE and PU) to be injected at the exact same time. This process targets different durometers (a measurement of hardness) of plastic into key areas of the boot.

Initial impression: The fit is super snug in the...

With the resort skiing season closing up, have poked about the web for current backcountry gear since have an interest in getting back into some of that after being away a few years.

I still have an old pair of BCA Alpine Trekkers that have lousy functionality but was able to get up modest slopes with. Also some K2 backcountry skis with Naxo bindings that are rather non functional at my low weight plus other usual bc stuff. As...

It's been cold these late days in August, down to the fifties this morning, and I saw a picture of Tony S in a parka over in Maine yesterday afternoon. The night before last I wanted a woolly blanket; last night I had one. My wife even complained of the cold — no surprise (she's under-insulated), but she talked about turning on the furnace, too, which isn't her style in August.

The (always reliable) Old Farmer's Almanac has already...

I usually run mine to 15% on the monitor which is about 10,000 miles. Once in a while I'll get it changed around 6,000.

That being said, I've enjoyed my horrible game as long as I look at it as a game.
Take a walk, get some exercise and hit some balls. Some okay shots. Some crappy shots. Some really awful shots, but I can enjoy it as long as its a game.
When I try to take it seriously, it gets in my head and there's no fun in that.

Then I read/watch this clip about Jordan Spieth. Someone who doesn't have the luxury of...

I go through a bit of withdrawal when I'm done for the season and usually spend a weekend moping a around wondering what the hell I did with myself before I skied. I eventually snap out of it and faster forward to fall and football and pre-ski season hype and I'm wondering what happened to summer. Skiing is all consuming from November-May so I like to do lots of other things that we don't have time for during ski...

Looking for some recommendations on a kids ski in the 120 cm. My son is 7 and has been skiing since he was 2. He basically skis everything. Currently have him on a pair of Fischer multi event racing skis. They are full side wall and 67 underfoot. My little guy is skiing mostly off piste and doing a lot of free ride style skiing. Looking for something a little fatter with a nice shape tail and tip rocker, but camber under foot. Full sidewall is a must given the terrain and his style...
